In night when colors all to black are cast,
Distinction lost, or gone down with the light;
The eye a watch to inward senses placed,
Not seeing, yet still having powers of sight,
Gives vain alarums to the inward sense,
Where fear stirred up with witty tyranny,
Confounds all powers, and thorough self-offense,
Doth forge and raise impossibility:
Such as in thick depriving [...]

The Hag is astride,
This night for to ride;
The Devill and shee together:
Through thick, and through thin,
Now out, and then in,
Though ne’r so foule be the weather.
A Thorn or a Burr
She takes [...]

The warder looks down at the mid hour of night,
On the tombs that lie scatter’d below:
The moon fills the place with her silvery light,
And the churchyard like day seems to glow.
When see! first one grave, then another opes wide,
And women and men stepping forth are descried,
In cerements snow-white and trailing.
In haste for the sport soon [...]

Der Türmer, der schaut zu Mitten der Nacht
Hinab auf die Gräber in Lage;
Der Mond, der hat alles ins Helle gebracht;
Der Kirchhof, er liegt wie am Tage.
Da regt sich ein Grab und ein anderes dann:
Sie kommen hervor, ein Weib da, ein Mann,
In weißen und schleppenden Hemden.
Das reckt nun, es will sich ergetzen sogleich,
Die Knöchel zur Runde, [...]

High School Musical 3: Senior Year was #1 on the weekend of 10/24/08. Great news? Hardly. My prediction of Highschool Musical 4: The College Years is looking better. Hopefully this is the last. But who knows?
Anyway, Saw V did well, especially for being a fifth installment. Pride and Glory made over $6m (only cost $30m [...]

Every since Scary Movie became popular the horror film genre has changed from movies about teenagers being chased down and murdered to a genre featuring brutal, morbid killings shown on camera. Gore has since been at the top of many ‘horror’ film goers lists.

Max Payne has been receiving some horrible reviews. However, it looks like it will still pop out on top once the weekend is over. W. has been doing well so far, which doesn’t surprise me. We as people are getting way too into ‘now’ and sequels it just isn’t funny anymore. Seriously, we have been [...]

This past weekend Quarantine debuted with great success; however, not surpassing Beverly Hills Chihuahua as #1 in America. They were followed by Body of Lies, Eagle Eye, and Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist.
This week also has a large variety for movie goers. Two dramas, an action film, and one comedy (although, I’ll be surprised if [...]

Why is it that the nastiest poets write the best poetry? I noticed this first while reading through biographies of many top classical poets: Oscar Wilde, William Butler Yeats, Lewis Carroll, and William Wordsworth to name a few.

The grossness ranges from orgies to pedophilia to incest. Obviously, not all poets indulge themselves in the life [...]
